VA Database 2.0

2. Check the settings for text report printing in the PAGE SETUP

window (see Document page setup, page 11). Select the tab

Documentation and set the Report type to All if you want to print

the whole text report.

Curves are missing in curve printing

1. Check the color settings for curve lines (some colors may

vanish on a black and white printer). Select black or dark col-

ors as default in the GENERAL PREFERENCES window (see

Settings, page 19) or OPTIONS window (see Display of curves,

page 14).

2. Check the curve subwindow in the MAIN WINDOW. If no curve

is visible, the scaling may be wrong. Adjust the scaling in the

OPTIONS window (see Scaling of curve axes, page 18) or re-

set the curve window to the default scale by pressing the

<F8> key or select the Set Default Scale option of the context

sensitive menu.

3. If the curve is not visible with default scale settings, change

the x and y axes scales to Auto in the OPTIONS window (see

Display of curves, page 14).

4. Since the changed scaling settings are not stored in the da-

tabase, you should correct the wrong scaling settings in the

746 VA Trace Analyzer. For this, send the selected determi-

nation to the 746 VA Trace Analyzer and check the Dis-

play/Plot parameters for segments or substances. Correct the

scaling to the desired values and send the determination

back to the VA Database.

Curves in custom reports are missing in printing

1. Check the color settings for curve lines (some colors may

vanish on a black and white printer). Select black or dark col-

ors as default in OPTIONS window (see Curve fields, page 64).

2. If the curve is still not visible, send the selected determination

to the 746 VA Trace Analyzer and check the Display/Plot pa-

rameters for segments or substances. Correct the scaling to

the desired values and send the determination back to the VA

Database.

Curve and axes lines are very thin

This problem may occur with printers with a high graphics

resolution. Reduce the graphics resolution on your printer

(e.g. to 600 dpi or 300 dpi).
